I really like the fulsac SS that is coated inside and out. He has some reinforcement plates welded in critical areas that reduce the chance of breaking down by the X joint that I have seen happen several times with the FM headpipe.

While I can only speak for the Fuel Moto/Jackpot head pipe which we manufacture, there is plenty of info out there on both pipes. Our Jackpot head pipes feature cnc mandrel bends, a true merge collector, and they are fully tig welded by hand. Our Jackpot 2/1/2 is constructed from 304 stainless, it includes both 12mm & 18mm O2 bungs and a lifetime warranty. Our entry level SPC pipe has 12mm bungs, a inner/outer ceramic coating and carries a 2 year warranty. If you feel tany of our products may be a good fit for your combination you are always welcome to contact us for more info at 920-423-3309

Here is an install that will walk you thru the installation of our Jackpot head pipes:

FM customer service is second to none. Haven't heard of many problems with them and when there were they took care of it. I would not hesitate to get their pipes. I found a really good deal I couldn't pass up, on a Full Sac head pipe and put that on but would have gone with FM if I didn't. I don't think you would be disappointed either way you go but a lifetime warranty on the FM isn't a bad thing either.
